LiveZen Bangkok

The rooms at LiveZen Bangkok all have a queen bed, and several of them look out over the city. Air conditioning is available in some rooms, and the rooms with a private bathroom have a walk-in shower.

Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, and toiletries and towels are provided in several of them, along with an electric kettle and a flat-screen TV in some.

Free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, and the hotel has a 24-hour front desk, an elevator, a terrace and air conditioning in the public areas. Daily housekeeping is provided, luggage storage and safety deposit boxes are available, and 24-hour security is in place at the property.

For sport, the fitness centre, a golf course on site and a mini golf course are all available. For food and drink, there is a coffee shop, a kitchen and a shared kitchen, and bottled water is available. Languages spoken include English and Thai, and the golf facilities give the stay a leisure side alongside the city sightseeing nearby, from Siam Paragon to the Grand Palace.

LiveZen Bangkok sits on Soi Sukhumvit 26 in the Sukhumvit area, a busy part of Bangkok lined with hotels, shops and places to eat along the main road. Travellers who want to be near the BTS skytrain and the shopping centres of the Siam area will find it practical.

Phrom Phong BTS Station is 300 m from the hotel, on the Sukhumvit Line, and Thong Lo BTS Station is the next station along the same line. Siam Paragon, a large shopping centre, is 4.4 km away, and Jim Thompson House, a complex of traditional Thai teak houses with Asian art and silk, is also worth a visit. For the old city, the Grand Palace is 8.9 km away, with the Temple of the Emerald Buddha inside the same complex, and Wat Arun, on the bank of the Chao Phraya river, is 9 km away.

For a full day, pair the Grand Palace with a boat trip on the Chao Phraya, or head to the Chatuchak Weekend Market, a large market in the Chatuchak district. Suvarnabhumi Airport is 19.9 km away, so the Sukhumvit area works well as a place to start or end a trip, with the Siam shopping centres and the old city both within a day's reach of the hotel.
